Peace
This is a drive by shooting. On a coach to St. Johann, Austria, the coach driver was tearing around the smallest hair pin turns on tiny Alpine roads as if he was late for some dumpling festival. I had the camera out just in case we crashed and took this photo while waiting for the crunch. Luckily that never happened. I hope you like it.
Canon 5D, 24-70mm at 35mm, f/3.5, 1/1600 sec, ISO 1600. No filters used. A death speed coach window in the way. I evened out the chrome abs because of the high iso.
This shot is also available from a photobook collection called Rural Mementos by redtree.me

I was thinking how serene – how tranquil – another peaceful scene from this wonderrful photographer! all dispelled by the hair rasing picture painted by the words! Glad you didn’t crash and very glad it meant you had your camera out when this one flashed by. Well done!
